Dewalt Tough System Small Tool Box Review
ToolGuyd: I have met very few power tool cases that I’ve liked. Some are flimsy and fragile, others are terribly inefficient in their use of space. Ever since I first laid eyes on Dewalt’s new ToughSystem tool cases, I knew they were different. This review will focus on the small Tough System case DS150/DWST08201) ($50 via Amazon). If you’re interested in the large case, check out my review over at Make. There’s also an extra-large case that is taller and wider than the large case, and comes with a vertical hand tool organizer accessory. Dewalt Tough System cases are built from 4mm-thick structural foam, and are rated to IP65 standards. So not only are they super-sturdy and crazy-durable, they’re dust-tight and essentially waterproof.

It looks like DeWalt has put a lot of thought into these cases. They appear really sturdy and seem well designed with the way they have those modular yellow boxes that can be reconfigured as well. I think they give Pelican cases a run for their money. These DeWalt cases cost less for their similarly-sized Pelican counterparts. I also like their attention to detail - such as having glove-friendly latches and a sturdy stacking system that can keep two or more cases from sliding off of each other.
